  1. Yeah, Craft is just awful. The brain trust hasn't made good decisions but you have to at least trust your quarterback not to make THOSE throws.
  2. Nice tackling Illinois.
  3. Jeremy Maclin is good.
  4. Nate Longshore is keeping Michigan State in the game.
  5. we were supposed to play middle tennessee, but the backed out. i guess chattanooga's AD is a friend of our AD, so we gave them 500 grand to come be a patsy at the last minute. They said their entire sports budget is 10 mil, so that's a fair chunk of change. we pulled the first teamers early in the second quarter Is the fact that it's a replacement game for Middle Tennessee supposed to make it better? Middle Tennessee is probably better than well over half the opponents of Top 25 teams today. That's not saying much. Just look at most of the cupcakes on the top 25 schedules. The added 12th game is a huge farce.

  7. I missed Bob Davie's "footbaw" pronunciation.
  8. Maybe being "very coachable" isn't such a good thing when Ron Zook is the coach in question.
  9. Juice Williams update: Still horribly inaccurate. It's hard to tell that he worked out with Donovan McNabb because he's overthrowing receivers, not throwing it into the dirt at the receivers' feet.
  10. Am I remembering incorreclty or didn't Cedeno have 20+ RBIs way back in May? He's only at 25 still?
  11. Do do do dooooo Do do do do doooo http://farm1.static.flickr.com/206/510999823_23796e531c_o.gif
  12. ESPN always likes one idiot on their studio panel to say stupid stuff. Holtz is the John Kruk of College Gameday Most of the people on NSBB know of my irrational hatred for ND. It's a deep hate, it's a good hate. It gives me no pleasure to say that Holtz is probably closer to the truth. They play the Big 10 teams but each of those teams are not good. Their toughest game outside of USC is Pitt and Pitt is coached by Wannstedt. I could see them winning 9, 10, or 11 games with a little luck. Then they'll play in a big bowl and get exposed like they always do. Long Live the Genius! I think I speak for most ND fans that I would gladly take the bowl-game disembowelment if it meant being good enough to make a BCS game this year. This is hopefully the last time I say that. FWIW, my BCS predictions: Rose: OSU/Arizona State Fiesta: Georgia/South Florida Sugar: LSU/Missouri Orange: Clemson/BYU National Championship: Oklahoma/USC As an 'SC alum I'll gladly take the Oklahoma/USC rematch in the Orange Bowl =P
  13. God, I cannot wait for channel flipping between N.C. State/(Fake) USC and Cubs/Phils and then Oregon St./Stanford! College football was gone far too long.
  14. Don't you know that "Cubs Nation" is really full of self-loathing "lovable losers" who really want the Cubs to blow it in the most heart breaking fashion possible because if they ever won we wouldn't know what to do with ourselves?
  15. Holy crap, Bob Brenly really DOES look like Bill Cowher. My mind is blown. Also that Wild Girls Needed sign was top shelf.

  17. That'll be a very humorous ad when UCLA finished below Stanford in the Pac-10 this year.
  18. Weaknesses: Offense, secondary (except for Verner). Strengths: Front 7, kicking game. Players to watch: Defensive tackles Brian Price (Tennessee will have to double team him) and Brigham Harwell, middle linebackers Reggie Carter and cornerback Alterraun Verner. If the OL gives them anything, the top 3 running backs are very talented (Kahlil Bell, Raymond Carter and Aundre Dean). The offensive line is awful. Inexperienced, full of positional converts and injuries and the depth is so poor there are only 3 backups for the whole line. UCLA is already on the 3rd string QB and it sounds like the only reason he's starting is because he's older and more experienced...i.e. he's not that talented. I'd be ecstatic with 4 or 5 wins this season. The biggest strength is that they have an excellent defensive coordinator and the most accomplished offensive coordinator in college football history. I miss Norm--as an SC alum I can comfortably say he makes Kiffin, and now Sarkisian, look like rank amateurs. But obviously, it remains to be seen how quickly that will pay dividends. I just hope UCLA can compete because I wouldn't be able to stand the SEC mouthbreathers holding this over the Pac-10's head. At least when UT beat Cal in Knoxville and vice versa last year in Berkeley there was some semblance of returning talent on both squads. Dorrell really did a number on that roster.
  19. That's what Fuku needs to be doing when he's working good hitters counts.
  20. I'm not really mad about the game but I am annoyed that Fukudome has been wretched for months.
  21. Cool, Kosuke still unable to hit below-average major league fastballs hard.
  22. Can someone give me a definitive answer as to whether Mrs. Camden has in fact, smoked pot?
